Hi

no. I'm not talking about a rmi (aldo i might use it)

Im just talking about an interface

public interface FileInterface {
    public String getBaseName();
    public String getDirName();
    public byte[] getData();
    public FileInterface getParentFile();
    public void setData(byte [] data);
    public boolean isDirectory();
    public boolean mkdir();
    public boolean mkfile();
    public FileInterface[] getFileList();
    public java.net.URL toURL();
    public boolean exists();
    public long length();
    public boolean delete();
    public boolean renameTo(FileInterface fileInterface);
}

that can be implemented differen way's (one can be rmi or an other can be x=
ml=20
+ http post's)

http://carlit.mine.nu/~keesj/vfs/vfs/
(currently i only have a local file implementation .. :(
=46ile file =3D new FileFacade(new LocalFileImplementation(new=20
=46ile("/home/keesj/")));

to only real benefit is that there is not need to rewite the FileChooser an=
d=20
such.

About a RMI solution to this... I think I would
consider this solution only in an intranet
environment. I my case this wold be hard to implement,
because the applet may be used in an internet/WAN
environment and the permanent socket that RMI needs
may not be posible in some cases and the known issues
regarding to firewalls with RMI would be hard for me
to get this feature going with RMI in this scenario. 

May be a beter solution would be to use a Java class 
to wrap HTTP calls to a serverside script PHP/JSP that
could act as a bridge to the serverside file system.

A more elegant solution would be to use web-services
to provide this feature on the server side, but the
applet would need the necesary classes to provide the
comunication to server wich would substancially
increment the applet jar size.

I don't think that ekit source code it self is bulet
proff code, but some how with a new release I think we
may attract more developers/testers/users. 

Even my code is not "production" ready, but I think
that if someone helps testing it it would be easier to
drive the code to a production state.

About writnig requirements/specification docs I think
that we need also a user account in CVS to
create/update the necesary code parts. That is why I
Cc. copied my last email to Howard Kistler, he is the 
the project mannager and owner of the ekit source
code.

Re: [Ekit-info] webstart and xhtml

[Samuel A. V. D. <sam...@ya...>]

Hi Kees and Howard,
 I'm working with ekit, I'm trying to adapt ekit to my
customer needs.

He needs to use ekit to provide online html WYSIWYG
editing functionality, so far I have signed ekit
applet, fully transalated to Spanish MX locale, fixed
a bug regarding  image generation and implemented a
functionality to upload the content (HTML) and the
images to the server (PHP, JSP) in an independant
maner using a java.net.URL object to perform a POST
and encoding the images in base64 format.

So far, so good. But MUTCH WORK to do ahead!....
Specialy some bugs with regarding to tables and caret
positioning.


I would very mutch like to share ideas with you, I'd
like you to send me your ICQ or Microsoft Messenger
contact, so we can share ideas...


Or if you like to, we could use this list too, so
every body can get benificiated from our work!!!!


Regards!!!!

P.D. Great job!


Howard, I think some one should merge Kees changes and
mines into a new relese of ekit, rigth?

[Ekit-info] webstart and xhtml

[Kees J. <ke...@dd...>]

Hi,

I was very happy to find the ekit application.
It's been something I have been lookig for for a while.

every time I find such an "applet" of "application" and look into the code it 
just scares me of.

But this time i was quite pleased :) thank you.

Anyway I would like to help to make the application even beter.

I have made some minor modification. 

First i started on creating xhtml/xml compatible output . therefore I created 
com/hexidec/ekit/component/XHTMLWriter.java
that uses a modified version of nanoxml  (http://nanoxml.sourceforge.net)

full source code can be found here .. but not for ever :)
(see) http://carlit.mine.nu/ekit/ekit.tar.gz 

secondly I started on the remote file management. maybe we can share some 
ideas.

third (just for fun) created a webstart application for ekit
http://carlit.mine.nu/ekit/ekit.jnlp

Is any help apreciated or should I keep my code somewhere else?


thanks again
keesj

Re: [Ekit-info] Help

[Samuel A. V. D. <sam...@ya...>]

Finally I found it is very simple:
EkitApplet.java:
  Vector vcMenus = new Vector();

// This was the line I needed to add
  vcMenus.add(EkitCore.KEY_MENU_FILE);
  vcMenus.add(EkitCore.KEY_MENU_EDIT);
  vcMenus.add(EkitCore.KEY_MENU_VIEW);

//...


  this.setJMenuBar(ekitCore.getCustomMenuBar(vcMenus));


If someone is on the same journey to make its way to Ekit source code this may help.

Now all the constructors narrow to the same master constructor wich in turn builds the the "FILE" menu as well as other menus, but I haven been able to determine why I'm not seeing the "FILE" menu.

Any help?

Hi, I found a bug tha may be easily fixed:

Re: [Ekit-info] Hi! Any one listening?

[Samuel A. V. D. <sam...@ya...>]

I'm trying to get the big picture with Ekit!!!! 
I'm no big expert with swing. 
As far as I have seen JTextPane is the component used to redender the document. --------> I belive this class is fine, plase comment. 
HTMLDocument is the model to hold the data. ---> I don't know mutch about this class only is that is the class that represents the model. 
HTMLEditorKit is extended by ekit in com.hexidec.ekit.component.ExtendedHTMLEditorKit 
I think that in order fix the tables issues, whe have to determine first the scenarios!! 
for instance: 
Is the HTML generated rigth or is it the render process what's wrong?

yap!

i must admit that due to the relative incompleteness of ekit, i use a msie-

consider changing back to ekit would be if the tables editor came to work.

[Ekit-info] Odd behaviour in CMS

[Shawn J. W. <sh...@ju...>]

I've got a question and a suggestion, both relating to the integration of 
Ekit into my CMS:

1. I've integrated the latest package perfectly using a hidden field and 
copying the contents of the applet using an onClick event in the submit 
button and that all works perfectly - however I noticed that when editing 
the html Ekit is not inserting <br> or <p> tags at all.  It appears to be 
doing so, but when you click the preview html the tags aren't there and 
when you un-preview it's as if you never had those tags to begin with.  The 
odd thing is that using the sample html provided in the tarball it works 
perfectly.  I copied the embedding code straight from the example, so I'm 
not sure why it would act differently.  The only things that are different 
are a:) my app runs in a frame and b) the object/applet is named 
differently (it's not "Ekit") - not sure if that makes any difference.  I 
can attach the complete source to the page if any wants.

2. Just a suggestion, but I was thinking that for my needs (integration 
with a CMS), I'd like the buttons laid out a little differently and that it 
would be great if the creation of the button bar and the creation of the 
menu were in their own functions.  The advantage is that for me to make my 
own layout I can just subclass Ekitapplet instead of hacking it.

[Ekit-info] Inserting tables

[Kamala P. <k.p...@sh...>]

Hi,
I am trying to incorporate Ekit to our CMS.  In order to provide 
extended access to nonvisual browsers it is necessary to include 
'summary' attribute in all the tables.  I have added that to 
EkitCore.java program and it is included with this email which I'm sure 
will be useful to others.

I still find the CaretPosition does not recognise the cursor position 
when you are typing something to a table.

I dont know about the bug that Sebastian is having trouble with, but since 
some of you might be trying to incorporate Ekit in some sort of an CMS 
solution (using php), you might want to have a look at some modifications 
i've made to the code. The really interesting part is the one concerning 
insertion of images ; the applet communicates with a php-script, that returns

[Ekit-info] Changing the text with JavaScript =?iso-8859-1?q?doesn=B4t?= work?!

Hi all!

I=B4d like to change the text in the applet using JavaScript (I=B4m writi=

of the database. The connection should be made with php, so I=B4m going t=

The getDocumentText() works, so I added a second funtion for that:

public void setDocumentText(String newText)
{
  jptMain.setText(newText);
  jptSource.setText(jptMain.getText());
}

This works - but only sometimes. The other times the browser hangs; IE wo=

Any hints?

there is a faq-entry at jguru.com (swing faq) which explains how to find 
out where a link points to the mouse clicked at. That's helpful in that 
matter, but it leaves out some tags for some reasons (h3 e.g.). You'd 
have to have an iterator run over all tags like
  Vector elementMap;
    ElementIterator iterator = new ElementIterator(htmldoc);
    while ((element=iterator.next())!=null)
    {
      if (!element.getName().equals("content"))
       {
        System.out.println("Element "+element.getName()+" goes from 
"+Integer.toString(element.getStartOffset()) +" to 
"+Integer.toString(element.getEndOffset()));
        elementMap.add(element);
       }
    }
and then look for 
element[i].getStartOffset<=caretPos&&element[i].getEndOffset>=caretPos.
I haven't tested this but i assume it is quite time-consuming. So either 
you do it only on command or you determine when to rebuild your 
elementmap very good (probably at every change of the document).

good luck

[Ekit-info] tag info status bar

[<ho...@at...>]

I am thinking of adding a status bar to the bottom of the Ekit 
window, showing the tag (at least) associated with the cursor 
position in the editor.  In other words, at a glance, while in 
WYSIWYG mode, the user could see that the text their cursor is on is 
an h3 (for example) without having to toggle to HTML mode.

Has anyone attempted this?  I'd love to not reinvent the wheel
here ...

Thanks,

Greg Holmes

Hi Dino,

RE: [Ekit-info] java version

[Dino D. <dda...@br...>]

Not that this is an bug or issue, but I was trying to figure out how to add
custom tags like "<expand>Some Text</expand>". I can't for the life of me
figure out how to do it.  I'm pretty sure it involves extending the
HTMLFactory, but I can't figure out how to get it to recognize custom tags.
Somebody must know!!

Besides, if you import an HTML page with html tags that it does not
recognize it generates these text box like views and distorts the HTML
within the pane.

Sorry if this is completely out of scope of this project.  I know this is
not the forum or media to discuss such issues -  just a last resort.

Thanks,

Dino

you need to use the batch file (MakeEkitApplet.bat on windows), that comes
with the release.
